High-Quality & Efficient Holter

What is an Holter?

What is a Holter Monitor?

A Holter monitor is a small device that continuously monitors the functioning of your heart, including heart rhythm and heart rate. You need to wear the device for 12 to 48 hours as you go about your daily routine. Just like a regular EKG, the Holter machine also has electrodes and electrical leads that are attached to your body.

The device picks up your heart’s rhythm and heart rate continuously for 12-48  hours, providing a clear view of how your heart is performing. When you experience symptoms like chest pain, dizziness, palpitations, fatigue, fainting, the Holter monitor test can also pick up the irregularities and represent them graphically.

Why is a Holter Monitor Test Performed?

If your doctor has recommended taking a Holter test in Gurgaon, the possible reasons may be:

• To evaluate symptoms such as fatigue, dizziness, tiredness, etc. which are often associated with abnormal heart functioning
• To identify the cause of chest pain that cannot be often diagnosed through exercise testing
• To monitor the symptoms of palpitations and irregular heartbeat
• To evaluate the effectiveness or progress of a treatment related to complex arrhythmia
• To assess how the pacemaker is functioning in heart patients
• To identify the risks of heart conditions if you already have persistent problems like heart attack, thickened heart walls or Wolff Parkinson

How is a Holter Test Performed?

At our diagnostic centre, we ensure the highest standards of quality and professionalism in performing all types of medical investigations. For a Holter test, we typically follow these steps:

• You need to remove any jewellery or metal objects in your body that may interfere with the test results
• After cleaning your chest area, our technician will attach electrodes to your skin over the chest and abdomen. The Holter device will be then connected to the electrodes. You need to wear the device either over your shoulder or around the waist. It can also be clipped to a pocket or belt
• Once the device is attached, you may return to your daily routine. If your heart’s functioning needs to be monitored under specific conditions, the doctor may recommend you avoid doing certain activities in your normal routine
• During the procedure, you are required to maintain a diary recording all the activities you are doing while the Holter machine is attached to you
• If you experience symptoms like dizziness, palpitations or chest pain, you must also mention the same in the diary in addition to the time and date of such activities
• Once the procedure is complete, submit the device and the diary to our team
